Female vulva anatomy

Vulvar itching is a symptom that many women have, ranging from 3 to 80 years old, but is more common in menopausal women. The itching usually occurs on the clitoris and the inner sides of the labia minora. In severe cases, it will spread to the entire vulva, labia majora and even the anus. Most of them are paroxysmal, appearing suddenly and then disappearing or improving after a while. How should we solve vulvar itching?

Choose the right underwear

Wear loose, breathable cotton underwear, wash, dry frequently, and keep the vulva clean and dry.

Keep vagina clean

Prepare special washing utensils in advance to ensure "one person, one basin, one towel, and one water". First, put a small towel into the sink and boil it for 15 minutes, and then use it after it cools down. Before cleaning the vulva, cut your fingernails and clean your hands. After washing, clean and dry the supplies.

Pay attention to your diet

Do not eat spicy food, food containing irritants, quit smoking and limit alcohol consumption.

Pay attention to environmental hygiene during menstruation

Use sanitary napkins that meet the standards. During the treatment period, sexual intercourse should be avoided, and the couple can receive treatment separately if necessary.

No need to grab

When vulva itching occurs, do not scratch the private parts hard to avoid scratching and causing infection. If the condition of vulvar itching is severe, it is recommended to seek medical treatment.

Among many gynecological diseases, basically 90% of women have suffered from vulvar pruritus, no matter you are an inexperienced girl or a married woman, vulvar pruritus will come to you mercilessly. Therefore, don't think that women who have no sexual experience will not suffer from gynecological diseases because of the factor of gynecological diseases caused by unclean sexual life. In fact, in many cases it is related to one's own lifestyle. Unhealthy living habits will inevitably lead to an unhealthy body.
